So, maybe you’re thinking this is a novel in a fictional universe with a lot of history. This guy’s got twenty-one books to his name; he can’t expect me to read all that.
Or maybe you’re thinking, “Shows what you know, Mr. Wanna-Psychic. I was thinking that I haven’t had a Kit-Kat in years. Sweet, wafery goodness, smothered in rich milk chocolate. It’s so yummy that if I think about this anymore, they’ll have to pay me for this impromptu advertising gig.
But whatever you’re thinking, I’d just like to assure you that this is a standalone novel. All of the characters will be introduced and developed in these pages. Anything you need to know about fancy tech or superpowers will be explained as if you have never read one of my books. And on the off chance that you need a little extra clarification – or maybe you just like delving deep into the lore – there are some helpful appendices at the back of the book.
PS. If you’re curious, the idea for this book came to me when I was listening to a podcast where different people would call in and share spooky, paranormal experiences. What struck me as odd is that the host treated every story as if it was equally credible. Whether it was ghosts, UFOs or strange monsters in remote places, the host acted as if they believed every tale. And I thought to myself, “Well, that’s a stretch. I mean, sure, maybe there are some unexplained phenomena out there. But they can’t all be true.”
all
Or can they?
I’ll leave you to think on that as you work through the mystery in this book.
PPS. Sorry for making you want a Kit-Kat.
Enjoy
